What is Happy's Place about?
"Bobbie (Reba McEntire) inherits her father’s restaurant and is less than thrilled to discover that she has a new business partner in the half-sister she never knew she had," a synopsis for the show reads.
In the interview with Entertainment Tonight, McEntire opened up about her experience filming Happy's Place, and what fans should expect from the new show.
"It's lots of fun. I love all genres of entertainment. But the sitcoms are so much fun, cause it's a brand new script every week. And you're just having fun. It's really hard memorizing dialogue you have to do, but it ain't my first rodeo. I do love it. And it's just playtime. We have a blast with it," she told the outlet.
She continued, "It's gonna be that heartfelt, fun, funny, laugh at our silliness. But also, [you'll] be touched with the heart in our show."
The Happy's Place cast
Reunion alert! Along with McEntire, Happy's Place will feature another familiar face, Melissa Peterman.
You may recognize Peterman from McEntire's hit sitcom Reba, which ran from 2001 to 2007. Peterman played Barbra Jean, the dental hygienist who had an affair with Reba's on-screen husband, Brock.
McEntire and Peterman also appeared together in projects Young Sheldon, Working Class, The Hammer, and Baby Daddy.
Along with this, McEntire's IRL boyfriend, Rex Linn, will be playing the role of the short order cook. "He is kind of the patriarch now that [the character's] daddy has died. Cause he has been with the tavern the longest," McEntire told Entertainment Tonight in a recent interview.
Other actors include Belissa Escobedo, Pablo Castelblanco, and Tokala Black Elk.
